Cool! I'd wait until people say the code is sane (I don't really know these ioctls) but if you want to make poor AUR folks our beta testers, that's ok. However, one issue: I did not set a license; your packaging says GPL3. It would be better to have something compatible with btrfs-progs which are GPL2-only. What about GPL2-or-higher? After adding some related info (like wasted space in pinned extents, reuse of extents), it'd be nice to have this tool inside btrfs-progs, either as a part of "fi du" or another command.
